Biosciences and modelling of complex systems
Biosciences and modelling of complex systems (Biosciences et modélisation des systèmes complexes)
This curriculum introduces biologists to modelling by enabling them to take courses in common with mathematicians, computer scientists and physicists. Admission requires an interview with master directors.
Knowledge to be aquired before the second year: differential equations; Fourier analysis; notions of partial differential equations; programming; general culture in mathematics and in physics.
Skills required: sens of organization; abstract thinking.
